“Hey, where are you going?” The female soldier noticed that Fan Wei wasn’t heading to the clothes-drying area and worried that she might have been too shocked by something.

“It’s too stuffy in here, I’m just going to take a walk outside.”

“You should hurry back then, the lights in the dormitory will be turned off soon.”

“I know.” Fan Wei placed her laundry basin at the door and her figure vanished around the corner a moment later.

Ning Di accompanied Jiang Nanfei all the way to the entrance of the family household courtyard where Huo Beijiang’s house, which was the first one and easy to find, was located.

“Sister-in-law, it’s right here.”

“Thank you!”

“You’re too polite.” Just as Ning Di was about to leave, she remembered something and said, “Have you had dinner, sister-in-law? If not, I can get you something from the canteen.”

“No need, I already ate at home.”

“Alright! Feel free to contact me if you need anything.”

“Hmm!”

As Jiang Nanfei watched Ning Di leave, she took out her keys. While standing at the entrance of the unfamiliar courtyard, about to unlock the door, she inadvertently noticed a figure flicker around the corner of the neighboring wall out of the corner of her eye.

She spun around abruptly, and the person across was taken aback, making direct eye contact with Jiang Nanfei.

The figure belongs to a slender woman. Her initial act of hiding was probably due to Captain Ning being around. Now that Captain Ning had left, there was no need for her to hide anymore.

Fan Wei stepped forward boldly, meeting Jiang Nanfei face to face and bringing up a naive, friendly smile on her lips.

“You must be my sister-in-law, right? Nice to meet you, I’m Fan Wei.” After she finished her introduction and noticing that Nan Fei had made no movements, she took the initiative to shake her right hand enthusiastically before letting go.

“Sister-in-law, you are really beautiful, even more beautiful than what people have described.”

Fan Wei, who was actually several years older than Jiang Nanfei, exhibited absolutely no discomfort while cheerfully addressing her as “sister-in-law”.

“You can just call me by my name, my name is Jiang Nanfei.”

Jiang Nanfei examined Fan Wei in front of her. Even though she was warm, radiant and cherubic, Jiang Nanfei perceived that Fan Wei was not someone who often smiles. Even if she did smile, she figured that those smiles would be subtle and enchantingly beautiful.

“That can’t be done!” Although Fan Wei stated her objection, she actually couldn’t agree more with Jiang Nanfei’s suggestion.

Addressing her as sister-in-law would be a constant reminder that Jiang Nanfei was the wife of their division commander. This would be more painful for her than being killed.

“It’s okay! You look older than me, it’s better if you just call me by my name.”

Jiang Nanfei’s words brought a brief flash of embarrassment on Fan Wei’s face, but she recovered very quickly, chided with a chuckle, “Alright! Nanfei, why aren’t you opening the door?”

In her mind, Jiang Nanfei was thinking, ‘You’re standing right here, it doesn’t feel right to open the door.’

But she refrained from commenting and took out her keys to unlock the door. As soon as the door was opened, Fan Wei walked in ahead of Jiang Nanfei.

The layouts of most of the family houses were similar. Fan Wei had been assigned to the 39th division right after graduation and was well acquainted with many army wives. Her reputation within the army was good, and she had been a guest at many of their homes.

As she walked in, she was already familiar with how to turn on the lights, move the stools, and even pour water for Jiang Nanfei.

“Nanfei, this is your first time here, make yourself at home! Please, have a seat.”

Picking up the two thermos flasks on the table, Fan Wei shook them and found they were empty. She muttered complaints to herself, “Ah, the division commander really doesn’t know how to take care of himself! There’s no boiled water inside these flasks. He always wakes up thirsty in the middle of the night but he never thinks to keep boiled water handy, no matter how many times I’ve reminded him.”
